3.Bundesliga - 2.Round small Update

1.FC Saarbrücken - VfL Osnabrück

Two traditional clubs meet each other here and both miss one striker who scored last weekend. For Saarbrücken imp. Striker Ziemer with injury and for Osnabrück Zollner who got a red card and is suspended now. Also both teams won their opener and both should be in a good mood and motivated enough to do the next step. Which team would have the better result in the end, it's very hard to predict because Osnabrück won not much at Ludwigspark in the past.

Kickers Offenbach - VfB Stuttgart Amas

Season opener for Offenbach's new stadium. Home side played well against newcomer Hallescher FC but lost Hahn with red card and played almost over 60mins. with one men less. They defended well and aloud not many chances to their opponent. Coach van Lent said that the defense did a good job but the offense miss some power. For this he trains a new formation with 4-3-3 this week to get more pressure on the opponent and in addition not to lose defense organization. Also out Hesse, Lamprecht and Mehic.

Amas from Stuttgart lost a bit unlucky at home. But young team has always some ups and downs as well. The defense was well but the offense with plenty of room for improvement. It's a bit of a problem to find the right way to score. Maybe if node bursts they score for free but if not, it's hard to see them winning or get anything. Tough place for them too, never won there. Missings: Rapp, Kiesewetter, Gallert, Geyer and Vecchione.

Alemannia Aachen - Wacker Burghausen

Relegated Aachen started well and did a good job at their season opener in Bielefeld. Sure they were 0-1 down but was the better side and got an deserved qualizer in the end. Key for this was the injury from Bielefeld's Hille who made a lot of trouble on his side and scored also the goal. After that, Aachen was much more awake then. Midfield Motor Streit gave some nice impulse for the game of Aachen and pushed his players as well.

Wacker started very bad but if you take a look at their squad that almost all important players left the club, it's not such a surprise as many think. They lost a lot of their potential and dangerousness with these players. Also with Burghard, Omodiagbe and Müller they miss some additional Kulabas and Aschauer have yet to convince in Burghausen's offense.
